Génération Cloclo

AllMusic Review
by Jon O'Brien

Released to coincide with both the big-screen biopic and TV talent show, A La Recherche du Nouveau Claude Francois, Generation Cloclo is a multi-media box set celebrating the career of the late French singer/songwriter. In addition to a 48-page book and 24-track DVD, there is also a live album, recorded in 1974 at his charity concert at Paris' Parc des Expositions, featuring performances of his biggest hits "Comme d'Habitude" and "Le Lundi au Soleil," his cover of the Supremes' "Stop in the Name of Love" ("Stop au Nom de L'amour") and the Four Tops' "It's the Same Old Song" ("C'est la Meme Chanson"), and two medleys.
